How Ember works

One short diagnostic. A real plan. Paperwork made painless.

You shouldn't need to be an HVAC expert, a rebate-paperwork wrangler, and a procurement manager just to lower your electric bill. Ember gives you the plan, the installers, and the paperwork playbook.

Why Ember

Built so the savings actually show up.

Honest numbers

Savings are estimate ranges from published regional data — shown before any rebates — and an Ember concierge confirms real quotes before work is scoped. No inflated brochure math.

Installers we'd hire ourselves

Every installer in Ember's network is licensed, insured, has 5+ years of operating history, 100+ jobs a year, and a homeowner-review score above 8.5/10. Bad apples are auto-removed.

We make the paperwork painless

Step-by-step filing instructions for your utility's efficiency programs and manufacturer rebates today — and your state's Home Energy Rebates as each state opens them. The federal 25C/25D credits ended Dec 31, 2025, and we'll tell you what's real rather than advertise what's expired.
